I think Paul’s got his perspective and his experiences, and I wouldn’t question that. The one thing I will say absolutely is that he’s totally incorrect when he makes the assumption that any change in our operation that he’s perceiving is due to Disney. Nothing could be further from the truth. Apart from that, I don’t think it’s all that surprising that’s got a thriving film and television and merchandising divisions might be making decisions a bit differently than a company that just shakily emerged from bankruptcy. And I think if you speak to most of the creators who are working for us, you’ll find that they don’t detect the same shift from “chasing creators” to not–that feeling on Paul’s part, I’d have to say, is perhaps more relevant to his own individual situation than a universal one. Oh, and also, I would never have approved that Superman story he tossed off, regardless of what year it happened to be. His DEADMAN book at DC was quite good, though.
